Tony Cuddihy

The story of the Charlie Hebdo attacks and their immediate aftermath.

You’d be forgiven for thinking that the Charlie Hebdo attacks in Paris had taken place three or four years ago, given the number of terrorist atrocities that have occurred since, but it’s less than two years since gunmen stormed the offices of the satirical publication and killed 11 people.

A new HBO documentary, Three Days of Terror, looks at the events that started on 7 January 2015 and continued for three days, when the gunmen were eventually killed at a signage company north of the French capital.

Three Days of Terror looks at the manhunt for the members of an Islamist terrorist group who commited the atrocities.
